Frontier Ruckus is a band that I grew up alongside. I shamelessly plug them whenever I get a chance. They make music about the places I grew up and sing about it in a way that makes me feel so close to it. Their new album just came out, but their first 2 albums are their standout. The Orion Songbook and Deadmalls and Nightfalls.

I’ve been really enjoying Frontier Ruckus’s new album On The Northline.

Close Combat: A Bridge to Far. It’s a real time strategy game with a larger regional map where you control simple supply lines and troop movement between battlefields. My two brothers and I would sit and watch each other play for hours because we just had the one computer back in the late 90’s/early 2000’s. We made a stupid rule that you had to be present to get your turn so we would often wait nearby for several hours for our chance at glory/survival.

Solid Sega Genesis game right there.

I am a big fan of the F bomb that gets dropped in Dude Where’s My Car. Fed up crazy old grandma runs over the protagonists (if you can call them that) Then raises a middle finger and says something like "F’n stoners*. Classic.
